The FBI is offering a $10,000 reward for information related to the shooting death of 16-yera-old D’Andre Green.
Green was killed following a fight at a party at Brookside Community Center in Newark in 2013. More than a year and a half later, investigators are still trying to determine who fired the fatal shots.
Investigators say Green was not involved in the fight that led to the shooting, but was running away from the altercation when the shots were fired. He was hit several times and later died from his injuries.
Because dozens of people witnessed the fight and were in the area when the shooting happened, the FBI is asking anyone with information to come forward. They’re offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. Tips can be called in to the FBI office in Wilmington at 302-658-4319, or to New Castle County Police at 302-495-8171.
